tjhunt 43457dc87c MDL-12066 - Links in the HTML block are not recoded on backup and restore.
This is messy because the links are hidden in the configdata column, which is serialized and base64encoded. So we have to untangle that, then ask the block whether there are any bits of $config that need to be fixed, then re-encode it before backup up. And reverse that on restore. It needs to remain base64 encoded in the backup file, so that the file format is backwards compatible.

I disucssed this with Eloy before doing it.

README $Id$
----------

This directory contains my try to create a backup/recover 
admin option to moodle. I don't know when and how it'll be 
finished, but I'going to try it, sure.

Some day, if this is fully functional, it could be integrated 
into the main Moodle distribution (ask uncle Martin).   :-)

Code here may not be tested - so there are no guarantees as
to the quality of the code in here, even if part of a stable
Moodle release.

Please, for any comment about this option, do it in Moodle
Developer Forum at:
   
   http://moodle.org/mod/forum/view.php?id=55
   (searching an "backup" topic) 

or you can put tour comments in Moodel Bugs at: 

   http://moodle.org/bugs/bug.php?op=show&bugid=84.

All comments will be welcome. TIA.

To see the general status of the utility, take a look to
"STATUS.txt" in this directory.

And this is all, I start with it NOW.
